Dramatic rescue mission by SSG of 16 hostages held in Afghanistan embassy.

On February 23 1994, the Special Services Group stormed the Afghanistan embassy in Islamabad to mount a rescue mission to secure the release of 16 Pakistani School boys who were kidnapped by Afghan terrorists.

The Afghan terrorists hijacked a school bus with 74 Pakistani children and 8 teachers. They drove to the Afghan mission in Islamabad where they released 57 students but kept 16 boys and the teachers and demanded $5 Million ransom. The negotiations led nowhere and it was decided to free the hostages by force. The Pakistani authorities had somehow managed to inform the children of the impending raid.

The SSG commandos used a secondary explosion as a distraction and entered the room at the Afghan embassy where the hostages were being held, killing all three terrorists, all boys were released.The operation lasted only 20 seconds.

It is clear from this picture just how old the classic SSG tactic of 'embedding' is.

Twenty years on and what policy changed occurred for the Afghan refugees?

Afghans should had been thrown out but No hum na to sari Ummah ka thaaka uttha rakha ha. Even now the fake mandate leader Nawaz extended their duration until i believe 2015 in Pakistan. Apna lia na bijli ha na pani or snakes ko palna laga hua hain.

Till that date Afghan Refugees policies are under review & a lot of time has been wasted & now these refugees have become a threat to Pakistan & assets for Afghan, India & US in Pakistan. These refugees are involved in massive crimes, human trafficking & terrorism through out Pakistan. They should be kicked out of ASAP for the safety of Pakistan as they are National Security threat for Pakistan.

Twenty years on and what policy changed occurred for the Afghan refugees?

Those kidnappers were allegedly identified as the member of Abdul Rasheed Dostam faction, this event act as a catalyst to change the Pakistan's Afghan policy. (support to Taliban)

I don't understand, why aren't we sending the Afghani refugees back? What are we waiting for?
